V2's Hiding Place

oh btw you know Lian gets slightly surprised when (non-family) people show him affection?

Yeah

that's all because of one fake friend he had when he was 14

:(

the "friendship" ended when the "friend" snapped on Lian while he was venting

D:

Lian: "...I- I didn't know what to do... a-and then he-"
'Friend': "Shut up."
Lian, more quiet and timid: "...a-and... and then h-he-"
'Friend': "Shut the f**k up! You think I want to hear everything little f**king detail?! I don't!! I don't give a shit about what happened to you! Just stop talking for once in your f**king life! Your voice is so go***amn annoying!!"

oh that's not gonna slide
You know what's gonna happen

yep
imagine Mr when Lian approaches him crying

oh that kid would be dead

"...h-hey Mr... *sniff*"

"you th-think I'll forgive you after what you said? What you called me just now?*

"...kinda..."

"You're a jerk! I don't ever wanna talk to you again!"

"...I'm sorry..."

"You just called me a sensitive little p****! What kind of friend does that?!"

"...Lian, I..."

*he gave him a look*

[i imagine Mr is just watching in disbelief]
"...I understand why you feel the way you do."

*in disbelief of what specifically*
"...then you'll understand I don't want to be around you.",

[Lian snapping]
"...Lian, wait..."

"..*sigh*. I kind of forgive you. But I still wanna spend some time away from you."

"I'm sorry. I'm a terrible friend. You don't have to forgive me."

*in one of the most threatening, terrifying voices ever*
"say that again and I'll kick your a**"

(Trying to hide his fear) "...h-heh... you don't scare me."

"apologize. Now."

"...no."

"count of five."

"...okay, Lian. I'm sorry."
[could you be Lian for just a few lines]

*does he accept the apology*

[no]

*Lian appears a bit mad*

"...?"

.

"...I promise to be reasonable
Until I have to be unreasonable."

"...o-okay."
[slight timeskip to when the interaction starts]

"..hello there."

?: "...hey."

"..I heard a few things about you I wish I hadn't. I would like an apology."

"For what?"

"I don't have to explain what you did."

"I didn't do anything wrong."

"well then, why could he be crying?"

"Cause he's a sensitive little pussy."

*probably yeah*
"..."

"Please just listen."

*are you waiting for me to make him storm off or something*
"what could you possibly say to make this better?"

"...I was an asshole to you. I was wrong. I'm sorry."

*does he accept??*
"..."

[not yet but he's getting there]

*k*
"..what you said really hurt me."

"I'm really sorry. I... I was awful to you."

"...you really, truly feel bad?"

"I really do. I feel awful. I know you hate me. I understand.'

.

"..Lian? What's wrong?"

"...m-my friend... *sniff* h-he..."

"..he what?"

"...I- I was venting to him... a-and he told me to shut up... a-and said I was annoying... and h-he... h-h-he said he didn't c-care about what happened..."

"..I see..."
*he seemed to be stifling a large amount of anger*

[he was venting about the time he got touched btw, so that makes it even worse]
"...I- I didn't know I was annoying him..."

"..where is he?"

.

"...somewhere around the school probably..."

"..uh huh. I think I'd like to have a word with him."

"...d-don't be mean to him, okay...?"
